I have been going to great clips for 10 plus years. In the past few years service has gone down hill in wasilla. Manager even has an attitude. Ive waited my 90 minutes. 2 hours after checking in on line. Still not served. Prices have gone way up sense covid started. Not even enjoyable coming in anymore. Sad

Went in to get a pixie like cut with layers and longer. It's super short and looks like a guys haircut. Almost all gone now, my hair was just past my shoulders.

I set an appointment for 90 minutes later when I showed up there was nobody there my phone still told me that it was 90 minutes away I asked him how could that be their response is that they take walk-ins before scheduled appointments I'm having a hard time understanding this why would you make an appointment so you don't have to sit in line in the store if you're going to get booted down every time a walk-in comes in why do you make an appointment their manager got rude with me the minute I asked him why I have used Great clips my whole life and I thought they were great I guess I'm looking for a new hair cutting place
